Hey Now, Youre an All-Star!

Last week, the Redbirds Josh Kinney was named to the 2006 Triple-A All-Star Game. A couple of days later, though, Kinney earned his first promotion to St. Louis. Kinneys replacement for the Pacific Coast League squad, Brian Falkenborg, declined an invitation to the game. All of which means a third Memphis relief pitcher  Andy Cavazos  will suit up for next weeks All-Star bash in Toledo, Ohio. Certainly the first Memphis pitcher to earn an All-Star nod with exactly zero wins.

Memphis fans might enjoy watching former Redbird Kevin Witt compete in Mondays Home Run Derby. You can keep up with all things All-Star here.  Frank Murtaugh
